Guild Wars 2, an MMORPG that has been well over five years in the making, is taking the final steps to release. The game's retail packages have been revealed, and the digital versions are now available for pre-purchase on the official site. The physical Collector's Edition can be pre-purchased at various participating retailers.

Gamers who pre-purchase any version of Guild Wars 2 will have access to all weekend beta events (there should be one per month) until release. They will also receive three days of early access to the game and an in-game Hero's Band which adds +2 to character attributes.
